Social and healthcare services for homeless people: A Discussion Paper:European Platform on Combatting Homelessness

Abstract

This discussion paper supports a mutual learning event for Member States organised as part of the activities of the European Platform on Combatting Homelessness. The paper complements earlier papers on homelessness strategies (O’Sullivan, 2022) and prevention (Mackie, 2022). The paper looks at health, care and support needs among people experiencing homelessness (PEH), at barriers to services and at evidence on effective health and social services for PEH. The paper concludes with some key questions around the roles of health and social services in combating homelessness in Europe.
